Hi Lilym,
Your Walter Crampton (1862) could well be the cousin of my great grandfather Mark Crampton (1854). I have Walter's parents as Nathan Crampton (1837) and Mary (1837). Nathan is the son of James Crampton 1800 (Crompton) and Betty Blackburn 1804 (Blagburn). My Mark is the son of Thomas Crampton (1824) and Betty Chadwick (1820), Thomas is also the son of James and Betty Crampton. James (1800) is the son of James Crompton (1770) and possibly Mary Buckley.
Rawrigds is Rawroyds - James Crompton (1800) died there in 1879, it is near Stainland/Outlane. James is buried in Outlane Church yard at the top end of the village with his wife Betty - along with some other Cramptons.
Swaite will be Slaithwaite, just over the hill from Outlane - pronounced locally as 'Slough it'.
I live in Huddersfield and have often wondered if there are any other Crampton/Cromptons in the area.
I am very interested to know if we have a link, I stumbled upon your post by putting Crampton and stainland into google.
